<\/a><\/p>\n I could think of no better tribute to the Irish than to share a few photos from our first visit to Ireland, a stunning and mystical land of unsurpassed beauty. Its ancient \u00a0history, steeped in legend and myths, is apparent everywhere you go. One can find ruins of ringed forts and monasteries, castles and ancient stones with stories dating back to Viking times through the more recent Potato Famine. \u00a0On this trip our adventures took us through the verdant countryside of County Cork and County Kerry and the quaint and colorful villages of Kenmare and Kinsale.<\/p>\n <\/a>Lovely Shelbourne Inn in Kenmare<\/p>\n <\/a>Colorful town of Kenmare<\/p>\n <\/a>Garden path at Muckross House and Gardens<\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n This centuries-old tree has seen it all – Muckross House & Gardens<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Killarney National Park<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Ancient Stone Wall on the Ring of Kerry<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Star-shaped Charles Fort \u00a0(17th century) overlooking Kinsale Harbor.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nHappy St. Patrick’s Day! <\/span><\/h2>\n
